Kanye West protégé Kid Cudi was arrested on Friday (June 11) in New York and charged with felony criminal mischief and possession of a controlled substance after authorities were called to respond to a disturbance involving the rapper and an unidentified woman.

A spokesman for the New York Police Department confirmed to MTV News that Cudi was arrested in Manhattan’s Chelsea neighborhood on Friday. The spokesman, however, declined to provide additional information regarding the controlled substance found on the rapper.

Cudi was charged with felony criminal mischief and possession of a controlled substance, after police arrived and discovered a glass bottle of a substance that is rumored to be liquid cocaine. Bail hasn’t been set yet, as Cudder is reportedly awaiting arraignment by a judge.
